Milton Keynes South MP, Iain Stewart, called a debate on the way Ofcom provide local community radio FM licenses. The debate came as a direct result of a meeting with the Programme Director of MKFM, Chris Gregg.
Community radio was first introduced back in 2004. The radio stations are designed to be run by volunteers and bring community benefits such as training and community news. Most cities in the UK have a community radio station on FM.
Mr Stewart said, "We are lucky in Milton Keynes to have a really good local media. We have good newspapers, magazines and regional radio. MKFM as a community radio station, has been doing extremely well on digital and I think they deserve and are capable of offering a service on FM. I hope that this debate will trigger a look into the application process. I think it would be good to explore if there are other, more effective ways the Government and Ofcom can provide FM licenses to community radio stations."
Chris Gregg commented, "MKFM has been campaigning for an FM community radio license for Milton Keynes since 2011 because we believe MK is an important city with a unique identity which should have its own dedicated radio station. Our main obstacle has been the very slow application process which has put Milton Keynes at the back of the queue for licenses. We are very grateful to Iain for helping us to raise awareness of this issue in parliament."
The debate was held on Friday 27th of February in the House of Commons.

Scores of nationalist protesters in Macedonia broke through a police cordon and stormed parliament in Skopje after an alliance of Social Democrats and ethnic Albanian parties approved an ethnic Albanian politician as the speaker of parliament.

Parliament

In modern politics and history, a parliament is a legislative, elected body of government. Generally a modern parliament has three functions: representing the electorate, making laws, and overseeing the government (i.e., hearings, inquiries).

Historically, parliaments included various kinds of deliberative, consultative, and judicial assemblies (i.e. the mediaeval parlements).

Etymology

The term is derived from Anglo-Normanparlement, from the verb parler 'talk'. The meaning evolved over time: originally any discussion, conversation, or negotiation (attested around 1100), through various kinds of deliberative or judicial groups, often summoned by the monarch. By 1400, it had come to mean in Britain specifically the British supreme legislature.

Origins

Various parliaments are claimed to be the oldest in the world, under varying definitions:

The progress report is expected to cover at least six strategic priority areas of the fifth Parliament, including the ups and downs, lessons learnt as well as renewed recommitments to raise the bar in re-affirming Parliament's role in the governance of the country, and in regional, continental and international multi-lateral relations platforms.
The stakeholders invited include diplomatic corps, government, the judiciary, non-governmental organisations, faith-based structures, business, labour, academic and advocacy institutions, as well as institutions supporting democracy within and outside of the public sector. The briefing session is part of the broader efforts of the fifth Parliament of South Africa to heighten citizen involvement and participation in advancing good governance, development and accountability, with Parliament itself being accountable to the citizens, their formations and the media for how it executes its mandate.
Details of the briefing are as follows:
Date: Tuesday 14 November 2017
Time: 07:00 (Guests arrive from 06:30)
Venue: Old Assembly Dining Hall
Members of the media who wish to attend the briefing must RSVP to Manelisi Ntsodo on mntsodo@parliament.gov.za or by calling 021 403 8494 or 081 716 2021 and Masego Dlula on mdlula@parliament.gov.za or by calling 021 403 8141 or 081 715 9398 before 16:00 on Friday, 10 November 2017.

Milton Keynes South MP, Iain Stewart, called a debate on the way Ofcom provide local community radio FM licenses. The debate came as a direct result of a meeting with the Programme Director of MKFM, Chris Gregg.
Community radio was first introduced back in 2004. The radio stations are designed to be run by volunteers and bring community benefits such as training and community news. Most cities in the UK have a community radio station on FM.
Mr Stewart said, "We are lucky in Milton Keynes to have a really good local media. We have good newspapers, magazines and regional radio. MKFM as a community radio station, has been doing extremely well on digital and I think they deserve and are capable of offering a service on FM. I hope that this debate will trigger a look into the application process. I think it would be good to explore if there are other, more effective ways the Government and Ofcom can provide FM licenses to community radio stations."
Chris Gregg commented, "MKFM has been campaigning for an FM community radio license for Milton Keynes since 2011 because we believe MK is an important city with a unique identity which should have its own dedicated radio station. Our main obstacle has been the very slow application process which has put Milton Keynes at the back of the queue for licenses. We are very grateful to Iain for helping us to raise awareness of this issue in parliament."
The debate was held on Friday 27th of February in the House of Commons.

Homo Politicus - Anglophone Crisis: The Great Debate At the Houses of Parliament

A few months ago, back in May 2016, the "Green Red and Yellow" flag with one golden star on the red stripe flew high from the mast of the mighty Westminster Abbey where a mass was organised to commemorate the CameroonNational Day.
Last month Room 10 in the Houses of Common was a theatre of a discussion on the current unrest in Cameroon, under the auspices of firebrand lawyer and community activist Julius NKAFU, and some members of British Parliament. The important gathering took place on 1 February 2017 in Room 10 which proved too small to contain the horde of Cameroonians including the current acting High CommissionerH.E.M. Joel NGUEKAM as a special guest. People came from all over the UK to exchange information about the current situation in their country. The debate was fierce and so...

Community Radio Licensing Debate in Parliament

Milton Keynes South MP, Iain Stewart, called a debate on the way Ofcom provide local community radio FM licenses. The debate came as a direct result of a meeting with the Programme Director of MKFM, Chris Gregg.
Community radio was first introduced back in 2004. The radio stations are designed to be run by volunteers and bring community benefits such as training and community news. Most cities in the UK have a community radio station on FM.
Mr Stewart said, "We are lucky in Milton Keynes to have a really good local media. We have good newspapers, magazines and regional radio. MKFM as a community radio station, has been doing extremely well on digital and I think they deserve and are capable of offering a service on FM. I hope that this debate will trigger a look into the application process. I think it would be good to explore if there are other, more effective ways the Government and Ofcom can provide FM licenses to community radio stations."
Chris Gregg commented, "MKFM has been campaigning for an FM community radio license for Milton Keynes since 2011 because we believe MK is an important city with a unique identity which should have its own dedicated radio station. Our main obstacle has been the very slow application process which has put Milton Keynes at the back of the queue for licenses. We are very grateful to Iain for helping us to raise awareness of this issue in parliament."
The debate was held on Friday 27th of February in the House of Commons.

Homo Politicus - Anglophone Crisis: The Great Debate At the Houses of Parliament

A few months ago, back in May 2016, the "Green Red and Yellow" flag with one golden star on the red stripe flew high from the mast of the mighty Westminster Abbey where a mass was organised to commemorate the CameroonNational Day.
Last month Room 10 in the Houses of Common was a theatre of a discussion on the current unrest in Cameroon, under the auspices of firebrand lawyer and community activist Julius NKAFU, and some members of British Parliament. The important gathering took place on 1 February 2017 in Room 10 which proved too small to contain the horde of Cameroonians including the current acting High CommissionerH.E.M. Joel NGUEKAM as a special guest. People came from all over the UK to exchange information about the current situation in their country. The debate was fierce and sometimes heated as illustrated in this video kindly put at your disposal by LeGuide Channel. Please enjoy and comment.
